Piccolo leadpipe and mouthpiece Alignment

Hello Guys!
My first post was about the Mouthpiece Alignment were I've described how to perform it on your trumpets and its benefits.
Now I'd like to explain you how to get the best out of your Piccolo.
Being a very short instrument, the Piccolo is very sensitive about these "pipes adjustments" and you can really make it playing much better.
We will be aligning the mouthpiece first, so take your Piccolo and your mouthpiece and do the same process described here.
By doing it, your Piccolo's playing must have been already improved, but we are going to make it much better by performing the leadpipe Alignment too.
Keep in mind where the best spot for your mouthpiece is and now do the whole process but turning the mouthpiece AND the leadpipe together.

Do the same process you did for the mouthpiece, but this time turn the mouthpiece and the leadpipe together, clockwise.  

Take a "reference spot" on the leadpipe which might be one of the small knobs. As you can see in the pictures I've placed my knob in the 12 o'clock position and started from there. Again, for the description of the whole process go here.  

Play the arpeggios and listen to the differences. Keep going until you will get back to 12 o'clock position. 

Have you found your "best spot"? So from now keep the mouthpiece and the leadpipe in this configuration! 

The response will improve a lot and the high register will be more focused. 

It would be useful to keep records of these "positions", especially if you don't play much Piccolo Trumpet, you'll forget soon where they are. 

Have fun now with your "new" Piccolo!
